I have had the worst day, hows this i was at work trying to make an honest buck when the pager for my car alarm goes off! i run outside as you do, only to see another black r32 driving off slow from next to my car with 2 guys in it no plates on the front but a plate on the back lucky i got their rego and have given it to the police, as when i got to my black r32 the door lock had been jammed with a screw driver the door handle had been half taken out ( only to dent and **** the door) and to make things worse the passenger window was smashed!! but nothing was taken ! I cant believe someone that drives another skyline would do this! but im confident the police will catch up with them!

Hi, I was just browsing around when your article caught my attention. May I know where u got your R32 windows from?

Thanks buddy.

2-way (ones that buzz you and/or show the point-of-entry) alarm systems go for around $850 fitted. It's worth it, and you can slightly lower insurance premiums.

It almost sounds like they were trying to get some parts from your car, or, perhaps the other black R32 was stolen as well?

I feel ya mate! Similar thing happened to me too. Busted door lock and ignition. Didn't take nothing but my sunglasses.

C*ckmasters like this make you think twice about living in a big city and owning a nice car.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
